Viscount Wenlani.
In early February, the Viscount's guard commander, Guhuas, led his men to raid several small towns in the territory and kidnapped the three barons and brought them back to the Mountain Sakura City.
These barons were then placed under house arrest in a small courtyard in the city, while the several towns under the viscount's jurisdiction were completely taken over by new personnel.
Having suffered an unexpected disaster, the families of several minor nobles wanted to report to the provincial capital, but unfortunately, most of the legions in the southern border had been mobilized to Chixin Province to quell the rebellion, and no one was sent to seek justice for them.
Or perhaps in the eyes of these military officers, these petty nobles were nothing but mosquito legs and not worth standing up for.
After initially unifying the Viscountdom, Loran Hill's side also paused for a while.
In fact, she did not expect to rely solely on force to solve the problems in the southern border. Not only would it be difficult to conquer them one by one, but it would also gradually expose her existence.
We still have to pick up some publicity work.
The girl sitting in her room, not wearing armor, was writing at her desk. She had summarized some of her past experiences in Clancy and began to compile some approachable pamphlets.
The language and words are as simple and straightforward as possible so that even illiterate farmers can understand the general idea.
This may not make the other party join you, but at least it can reduce many unnecessary conflicts.
In addition, during this period of time, she finally came into contact with the group of initiators of the rebellion.
"Hello, my name is Lu Bin."
In a hidden cave in the forest, Loran Hill met the young man, who was Iena's brother and a wanted rebel.
"Thank you very much for saving my sister." The young man looked about 26-28 years old, with short chestnut-blonde hair, wearing leather armor and a long sword at his waist.
He has the strength of War Sequence 3, which is not very strong, but he seems to be respected by those around him.
Compared to Gu Huas, the mercenary adventurer who has attracted much attention, this young man is the one who is truly commanding and instigating the uprising behind the scenes.
"I'm sorry that I didn't trust you from the beginning and we haven't met until now." After Loran Hill and Guhuas took over the territory, the young man secretly observed for nearly a month before sending someone to contact the unknown knight.
"At least now I can believe that you are a trustworthy person." He stretched out his hand, and Loran Hill also shook hands with him briefly through the cold iron armor.
"Can you tell me about your plans and ideas?" Loran Hill looked at the young man with a little curiosity. There were several people standing behind him. Although these people were not particularly strong, they had clear and firm eyes. It seemed that they had received intellectual education and military training.
It is hard to imagine that there is already such a complete and advanced rebel army in the South.
In response to the knight's question, the young man smiled and gave a brief explanation.
“For the first person to blaze a trail, it will undoubtedly be extremely difficult. But for those who come after, all they have to do is follow the trail.”
"We have only learned from the advanced experiences of other countries." As he said this, he took out a dirty and old booklet from under the table beside him. It contained various texts of early propaganda in Clansia.
“I have to say, these words are so heart-stirring that one can’t help but yearn for them.”
"If I had believed it at the beginning, I would always be a little nervous and doubtful. Fortunately, our neighbors have set a good example. It is indeed effective and feasible, so why don't we learn from it?" Lu Bin stroked the book and sighed.
"But things are not that simple. We have encountered many difficulties in the Empire that cannot be described."
"Compared to the West Wind of the past, today's empire is more powerful and has greater dominance."
"Westwind's territory is probably slightly smaller than the South, but the South only accounts for one-fifth of the Empire. If we are not completely successful, the Empire can easily mobilize millions of troops from the North, East, and even the center to suppress the rebellion."
"Besides, the rule of the nobility is not all bad and evil."
"Isn't it very difficult? Some good nobles have become a huge obstacle to reform."
"Because they are not bad enough, they give people hope, and the existence of hope creates weakness and vacillation."
"No matter how beautiful the future we paint, they won't take the risk. Even if it's true, they won't try what Clancy has already achieved."
“Sometimes, I have to feel guilty and thank the disaster, because it allows the tide to recede, and some cruel truths are finally exposed.”
"The empire's northern borders are plagued by famine, and the southern borders are plagued by constant war. While this has undoubtedly brought suffering, it has also gradually awakened everyone and made them willing to read the booklet I gave them and the vision described within."
"People are like this. Unless you shatter their last hope, they won't be determined to take risks. We've all been raised to be too docile."
Sitting in this cave dug out of the loess, the young man and Loran Hill told each other about the various difficulties they and their people had encountered in recent years.
"I learned my knowledge from another mentor. He was in the Purple Shank Province, which is close to the center of the empire and is also a densely forested area. Thanks to a good friend of my mentor, he trained a group of intelligence personnel for us, so that the organization could be slowly built up and not be completely scattered."
"Although I've never seen your true face, I believe you must be someone who has a deep understanding of both Clancy and the Empire. This can be seen from the announcements and documents you write every day. There are many things that are familiar and familiar to us."
"If you have the same dream as us, but cannot reveal it freely due to your identity, I think it is understandable." Lu Bin believed that this unknown knight should come from a noble family, and further guessed that he might be the second son of a noble.
